Hi all, 

We are thinking about something always. We split the thinking into two areas. First one POSITIVE and second on is NEGATIVE. This thinking is not having any control on things happening around you. If you think POSITIVE, you will get more time to concentrate on day today actions at office, home etc. 

If you THINK negative, you will be more worried and losing interest on activities need to be done. You are further loosing. 

POSITIVE thinking will direct you to further good things due to your

Having roots is the way to be human and how to learn about the universe. If you understand how to be human, you can lay the foundation to understand about heaven and the earth. If you do not understand how to be human, it

The shortest sentence in the English language is "I am".  What is the longest sentence in the English language?

A man rode into town on Tuesday.  Two days later he rode home on Tuesday.  How is this possible????

Mom and Dad have 4 daughters, each daughter has one brother. How many people are in the family? 

The paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it.

“Do you speak English?” Well, you must have come across this question at various places. More Often, at workplaces. Right? Yes, if you are the one who can speak good English, you have the opportunity to create your own career route and be the best at what you would like to be in your life too but if you lack the essential languages skills, you struggle a little more to gain success in your career.

Of course, at schools or colleges, language that is taught is more general in its nature. This can h

Let's Remember the Best!

2347487679?profile=originalHi, everyone! The year is coming to the end and, as usual, we can’t help recalling its memorable moments. 2017 hasn’t been the best in my life. It was a year of cardinal decisions and fundamental changes, a year of losses and finds, disappointment and quest, hesitation and reflection, despondency and rapture, new discoveries and new sources of inspiration. But whatever we live through makes us stronger and wiser and sooner or later we start realizing it was all for the best. So, I’d like to leav

optimism

I am optimistic about the new year 2018. Looking at the different circumstances of the current year, 2017. Noticing that some conflicts are less in certain areas, like Syria, Yemen. Iraq war is over with the terrorist organization. The middle east in general. The south of our country, Sudan and other scattered areas of Africa. Things are taking new shapes. North Korea and The United States are performing that mutual yarn. It is just like playing hide and seek. Iran with some Gulf countries. The

To be specific, Life needs food, water, air, sex, sleep, safety, resources, health, medical care, assurance of having a job, family affection, friendship, love, self-esteem, social status, confidence, a sense of ac

One night, many years ago, when I was ill with flu and was turning from side to side unable to fall asleep.

I don't remember that night clearly, but I just know that I saw one unknown woman in my room. She touched my shoulder like my mom does, smiled and said sleep. And when I closed my eyes she disappeared.

On the next day I told about that to my mom and she was shoked. Because nobody entered to my room that night. Now I realize that probably it was hallucination or just a dream. But I am not exa

There are many times more stars in the sky than people on earth. Each star floats along its own orbit around the galaxy and each orbit is determined and is not its free choice.

 

Life also has its track: birth, growth, ageing, and death is our inescapable course. Eighteen (18) properties cannot be self-managed within Life’s track. If we make a detailed search and analysis, we can see that each

Life's in "Messa di voce"

Messa di voce is a musical technique that sung or played at a quiet volume, gradually and smoothly made louder until it reaches a high volume, then similarly made quiet again. (wikipedia)

When I was so active in singing activity, I liked this word "messa di voce" a lot. One day, I was observing the drizzle outside, but suddenly it was a heavy rain, in a minute, drizzling again. So, I said to my friends, "Hey, this rain plays messa di voce". They were all laughing. "Hahha...well, well, you can say

”Abandonment is an achievement.”

It seems that “Abandonment is an achievement” is a contradiction, but it is actually great wisdom, though beyond the ordinary people’s comprehension and imagination. It embodies an ingenious realm; a boldness of vision that looks far ahead and aims high above the common and vulgar; a tactical str

From the long-term perspective, we know that each life lasts for only a fleeting moment. Regardless of how capable we might be, we are incapable of escaping our inexorable doom. How to spend this fleeting life is a question deserving our serious consideration and discussion. Look at life from the perspective of LIFE, life is only a journey, a flash of light in the infini

Jerusalem – The City of David

     David, the son of Hebraic tribe of Canaan  conquered the city from the Jebusites and established it as the capital of the united kingdom of Israel, and his son, King Solomon, commissioned the building of the First Temple of Judaism in this region.
